Wii Duplicated Channel Remover shows the IOS which is in USE, not the IOS which are installed. And Mario Kart just released today, I might be screwed if it installs a Systemmenu which uses IOS37 ...
I can know confirm what you said Shuny. you just installed the IOS37.
And people saying it doesn't contain IOS37, they are wrong.
a friend just tested that a few minutes ago :
before updating his Wii, he was on 3.1E on IOS35
he is living in France like me.
1 - He tried the Duplicate Channel remover V2 by Waninkoko, and it said IOS35
2 - He run the Title lister program, written by Bushing. (can be found
here). last listed IOS = IOS35 --
picture here -- look at line 40
3 - update from online (not from mario kart)
4 - run the Title lister again. Last listed IOS = IOS 37 (2070) Ver8.22 --
picture here -- line 41
now the funny thing : it doesn't have IOS36 yet. check line 42 it says IOS35 (1040)
5 - He run Duplicate Channel remover V2, it says : IOS35 !!!! (even if IOS37 is present)
6 - he put Mario kart in the Wii, and mario kart ask to update. he does, and run Channel remover again : IOS36. The one mariokart just added.
7 - He run again the Title lister, and now, all the IOS are present. --
picture here -- Notice how the IOS36 is on top of IOS37 (line 42) and a new ISO14 just appeared too. maybe he didn't have it yet on his Wii, and mario kart installed it at the same time.
Conclusion :
1 - Waninkoko tool does not list last IOS installed, but actual IOS in use.
2 - PAL region do have IOS37
edit : 3 - We can see that Mario kart still want the IOS36 to be installed, even if better IOS is present. It could have think "let's activate the IOS37, as it's a better one". no, it's running the right one the TMD is asking.
Now the question is : Is there only one IOS37, or 2 version of IOS37 ?
IOS37-64-v2070.wad is the French one, does the US IOS with the trucha fix have a different version number ?
Could someone in USA who already latest firmware from online update test it with Title lister and report the version please ?
Thank you
Edit : Thanks goes to my friend Thany who devoted himself to update his wii to test this.
Edit 2 :
nothing to do with IOS, I'm just wondering if it could be possible to download only the Shop channel for WiiWare without IOS37 by redirecting the links to the good files.
I have the link for 4 splitted files the Wii downloaded while updating the IOS37.
he is sending me those files, I will check if they are common .wad file with Wad explorer.
